Samsung Galaxy S6 rooted Before Even Its Launch

Samsung Galaxy S6 rooted Before Even Its Launch

Obvious clickbait is obvious, unlocked bootloaders are unlocked, and as invariably someone has to point out in a snarky comment on /r/android, open doors are indeed open, even before you kick them.

Either way, the first CF-Auto-Root's for the S6 family are up: SM-G920T and SM-G925T - the T-Mobile US S6 and S6 Edge.

Only very minor modifications were necessary [to the existing CFAR script]. The S6 CFAR has been tested on a real device, and root was achieved. Further information? I have none, I wasn't there in person.

All completely expected, but perhaps nice to know regardless.

Before actually rooting though, consider that KNOX will likely be tripped, and there's a good chance untripped KNOX will be required for phone based payments.

Let the "yeah I don't really need root anymore" commenting commence!

EDIT: The G920F S6 'international' has also been added now

So keep tuned and we will soon start posting tutorial on how to root samsung Galaxy S6
